Microsoft Office Web Applications 

At this year's Microsoft Professional Developers Conference (PDC), it was revealed that Redmond would be releasing Microsoft Office Web Applications. Microsoft Office Web Applications will be a new service that will allow creating, editing, collaborating, and sharing documents using the web. According to a Microsoft run blog, Office Web Applications will work on Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer, on multiple platforms including Linux.
It will be interesting to if Microsoft provides a free version of the Office Web Applications considering the availability of Google Docs. Office Web Applications can be expected in the next version of Microsoft Office - Office 14.
For those on 'alternative' platforms, will you support the new Office Web Applications?

£40 for a 512 8800GT is pretty good. Dont think I'd bother with 256 considering what u already have. I mean sure u get dx10, but still 256m for gfx.
Ati 4850 does own 8800gt easily. The purchase come down to this- are you playing dx10 games now? If you want to wait for 4850, how long can you wait? I have upgraded from ati x1650 and waited till vista was actually usable. Then came 8800gt, thought of waiting for a month's time- ati started to pwn nvidia. Hence I bought palit 4870 1gb ddr5 dual sonic- and its excellent.

You can wait till your card has really outlasted its usefulness.

Agreed 100%.
Even if he found in a few months it didn't have enough power, he could probably sell it at a profit.
For 40quid that is a steal right there ;)
yeah thats a good price for a 8800 GT.. your gonna see a pretty significant difference in games and now that you'll be able to run Direct X 10 your games are going to look a lot better.. Plus you'll have Physix and CUDA support not to mention Pure Video for HD Video Decoding.. You cant Lose.. i love mine.. I just got a 280GTX but i still have my 8800 GT for folding
Just so people know, I did get the card, but unfortunately when I put it in I figured out pretty quickly that it was 256MB.
The good news is that the guy I got it from is a pretty top bloke so he said I could just use it in my system for free until I had enough cash for an upgrade!!! He said it was his mistake as he did think it was 512.
It's a nice upgrade from my 7900, TF2 for example runs much smoother, but I can't help thinking that the GT is a bit crippled by the framebuffer, as even at 1440*900 I can't really use more than 4*AA in most of my games when the action heats up, which is what I had it on before.
Still for free, can't complain I guess :D

Is it worth it upgrading from my 7900GS 256 which I run with a nice little OC when gaming of:

(Got the Akasa Vortexx Neo strapped on keeping everything cool, so temps don't go above 50 on load at this time of year)

or should I just wait till I can afford something like a 4850? The 7900 is capable in most Source games, but I have to play with most settings down in TF2, so I'm thinking Left4Dead would crawl with any detail. Would the GT do ok in Mafia II/GTAIV?
